We rented another scooter to go to the hot springs which was about half an hour from Pai. The resort had a mineral pool, a lap pool and a hot pool. All of the water for the resort was fed by the natural springs up in the mountain. We then returned to Pai and caught a 5pm bus to Chiang Mai (since we can't directly get to Chiang Rai from Pai). We stayed the night in Chiang Mai at a hotel with the friendliest staff we have encountered yet, which says a lot since we have had great luck with accommodation staff.
